Explore the New Great Lake Erie Birding Trail

Each year, thousands of warblers and songbirds flock to the northwest shores of Lake Erie to refuel before traveling over the Great Lakes. Now is your chance to see these birds! Destination Toledo has launched The Great Lake Erie Birding Trail, which takes visitors to birding hotspots throughout northwest Ohio, southeast Michigan and even into Canada.

To explore the new trail, birders can sign up for the free mobile passport and select the desired hotspot for more information. Once birders have checked in at all 15 locations — including the Howard March Metropark, Kelleys Island State Park and Point Pelee National Park — they will receive a Great Lake Erie Birding Trail limited edition pin.
